Permanent position in climatology
The Centre de Recherche Public - Gabriel Lippmann (CRP-GL), a public establishment for applied scientific research and technology transfer in Luxembourg, has an opening on a permanent contract basis for its department ?Environment and Agro-biotechnologies? (EVA) for a researcher (m/f) in climatology.
Reference (always quote):
EVA-200412-CHRECLIMAT
Duties and responsibilities:
The researcher will join the climatology team of the research unit ?Earth Sciences and Land Management? (EVA-GEOSAT) whose focus is on various aspects of the water cycle.
Work in climatology at EVA is currently focusing - but not limited to - on regional climate change, i.e. handling and use of existing ensemble datasets, e.g. by extensive custom processing chains, participation in various impact analyses (e.g. river discharge modelling, plant pests in agriculture, forest and biodiversity management), and own RCM simulations, primarily with the WRF model. As the focus process-wise is primarily on boundary layer meteorology, the team furthermore has a strong interest in surface-atmosphere coupling, under present and future conditions, especially with regard to the water cycle and high resolution model runs and data synthesis approaches allowing to capture small scale surface heterogeneities. Local long-term historical meteorological datasets complement our data archive. In addition, the team provides weather and climate data related services to the in-house research community.
Tasks and duties of the successful candidate include all aspects of software tool development, data handling, pre- and postprocessing, visualization, numerical model setups, tests, simulations, data analysis (advanced diagnostics, time-series analysis, etc.), documentation, participation in the planning and implementation of complex experiment designs, publications, conference participations, etc. as well as joint supervision of PhDs, PostDocs and students. The researcher is also expected to play an active role in helping build and further establish the team. This may also include services to the in-house community in cross-disciplinary setups, external services or public outreach activities.
Qualifications:
- Candidates should hold a PhD in either climatology, meteorology, physics, mathematics, geosciences or a related field with proven experience in the required tasks and duties. International PostDoc experience is considered as an advantage.
- Candidates must have very strong scientific computing skills using e.g. Fortran and languages like IDL or Python and some scripting language. Experience with code development and maintenance tools (e.g. SVN, gdb, etc.) and use of a parallel programming model (e.g. MPI) are required; visualisation techniques as well as advanced data analyses are expected. Work is done in standard Linux operating environments on clusters and compute servers on our own in-house HPC system. Knowledge of the GRIB and NetCDF data formats including analysis tools (e.g. NCO, CDO) in combination with large data volumes is mandatory.
- Proven experience with the WRF model or a similar regional model system is absolutely essential.
- The candidates must have a record of publications in peer reviewed scientific journals.
- Applicants must demonstrate excellent written and verbal communication skills, ability to take initiative, prioritize and work under set timelines and pressure, and the ability to work independently and self-responsible as well as in a team, and finally a strong commitment to accuracy.
- The candidate must be fluent in English (scientific exchange), French (administrative language) and/or German will be considered as an advantage.
Application:
Candidates who are interested in this position should send their application (with the above reference) including CV, motivation letter, names of at least two referees, a list of research projects and publications, diploma and possible work certificates, either by e-mail (preferably one PDF file) to recrutement@lippmann.lu or by mail to:
Centre de Recherche Public - Gabriel Lippmann
Service Ressources Humaines
41, rue du Brill
L-4422 BELVAUX
The position is to be filled as soon as possible. Interested candidates may contact the supervisor for this position and project leader climatology Klaus G?rgen (goergen@lippmann.lu) for further information.

'Using top-down emission estimates of greenhouse gas emissions to aid the
development of UK land surface modelling'
Funded NERC 3.5 yr CASE studentship at the University of Leeds (School of
Earth and Environment) and Centre for Ecology and Hydrology, Wallingford.
Methane is the second most important Greenhouse Gas after carbon dioxide.
Atmospheric measurements from ground-based sites and satellite
observations are being used to constrain the global and regional emission
estimates of methane. Although considerable progress has been made in
recent years, there are still significant uncertainties in the amount,
trends, spatial and temporal distributions of both natural and manmade
sources. Wetlands are generally accepted as being the largest but least
well quantified single natural source of CH4.
The overall objective of this CASE studentship is to improve the
description of greenhouse gas emissions from natural sources, such as
wetlands and biomass burning, in the UK JULES land surface model by
linking the bottom-up process description in the model to atmospheric
inversion estimates. A main objective will be to develop new
parameterisations of methane release from wetlands and testing the
resulting emission fluxes against atmospheric observations using forward
atmospheric Chemical Transport Models. A second objective will be to
investigate methane release from biomass burning.

For over a decade now we have been running our MRes programme (Physics of the Earth and Atmosphere) here in Leeds.
When originally established, it had the aim to provide a conversion pathway for physical scientists with degrees in maths, physics, chemistry etc... to atmospheric or earth scientists.
We have recently reviewed the programme and the majority of our students have opted for an atmospheric stream and this has led us to refocus it towards the atmospheric and climate sciences alone.
The programme provides students with a choice from a wide range of topics including atmospheric dynamics and numerical weather forecast modelling, earth observations and climate change adaptation as well as a residential field course in Arran and a significant research based dissertation project (>60%). Participation in research conferences and fieldwork is very much encouraged.
For those who are considering a research career the MResCAS provides the extra training which makes our graduates exceptionally strong PhD candidates, this year all 5 students looking for studentships have been successful with some of them receiving multiple offers.
There are a number of Excellence Scholarships available for 2012 entry including one which is specifically ring fenced for the MResCAS course (www.see.leeds.ac.uk/mastersscholarships<http://www.see.leeds.ac.uk/mastersscholarships>).

PhD Position (m/f)
code no. 2012/KS 6
The place of employment is Geesthacht, Germany.
The Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht, near Hamburg, and in Teltow, near
Berlin, conducts materials and coastal research. You can find more
information at <http://www.hzg.de>.
The Institute for Coastal Research in Geesthacht, near Hamburg, Germany,
invites applications for a 3-year PhD Position (m/f), ideally starting
in July 1st 2012, within the coordinated project GENUS II (Geochemistry
and Ecology of the Namibian up-welling system).
The PhD position will be involved in the sub-project entitled 'Influence
of large-scale climate variability on upwelling regimes off the Namibian
coast: implications for past and future climates’. The GENUS-II
project is the second-phase continuation of a collaboration between
several research institutions and universities in Northern Germany. It
is funded by the German Ministry of Research for a period of three
years. The general aim of the project GENUS-II is to understand and to
model the interaction between climate changes, the geochemical cycles of
nutrients, the fluxes of climate-relevant gases and ecosystem structure
in the up-welling system off the Namibian coast, as an important example
for other up-welling areas around the world. The contribution of the
Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht to the project involves the joint
statistical analyses of already existing global and regional simulations
with atmosphere, ocean and climate models, with different configurations
and spatial resolutions, and covering a range from the last 50 years to
the past millennium. The main goal is the identification and
understanding of large-scale climate processes that are relevant for the
modulation of up-welling regimes, and the estimation of past changes
over the past millennium and expected future changes in the current
century. These studies will be carried out in collaboration with
geochemists, biologists, geologists, and oceanographers working in the
project partner institutions.
The Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht invites highly motivated candidates
with a basic knowledge of the field of climate sciences, preferably with
a background in meteorology, oceanography or climatology. The adequate
candidate has initial demonstrated experience in the application of
statistics to analyse and interpret long climatic or environmental data
sets and a strong interest in expanding his/her experience in this
field. She/he has good organisation skills. Some experience with
Unix-based computers and basic programming skills in modern FORTRAN and
R will be very positively considered, and it is expected that these
abilities will be considerably expanded along this project. The
candidate should have, or be motivated to acquire, good written and oral
communication skills in English to publish his/her work in papers in
scientific journals and presenting materials at science workshops and
scientific conferences. The successful candidate is expected to present
his/her PhD dissertation at the University of Hamburg during the last
stages of the project.

PhD Position (m/f)
code no. 2012/KS 6
The place of employment is Geesthacht, Germany.
The Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht, near Hamburg, and in Teltow, near
Berlin, conducts materials and coastal research. You can find more
information at <http://www.hzg.de>.
The Institute for Coastal Research in Geesthacht, near Hamburg, Germany,
invites applications for a 3-year PhD Position (m/f), ideally starting
in July 1st 2012, within the coordinated project GENUS II (Geochemistry
and Ecology of the Namibian up-welling system).
The PhD position will be involved in the sub-project entitled 'Influence
of large-scale climate variability on upwelling regimes off the Namibian
coast: implications for past and future climates’. The GENUS-II
project is the second-phase continuation of a collaboration between
several research institutions and universities in Northern Germany. It
is funded by the German Ministry of Research for a period of three
years. The general aim of the project GENUS-II is to understand and to
model the interaction between climate changes, the geochemical cycles of
nutrients, the fluxes of climate-relevant gases and ecosystem structure
in the up-welling system off the Namibian coast, as an important example
for other up-welling areas around the world. The contribution of the
Helmholtz-Zentrum Geesthacht to the project involves the joint
statistical analyses of already existing global and regional simulations
with atmosphere, ocean and climate models, with different configurations
and spatial resolutions, and covering a range from the last 50 years to
the past millennium. The main goal is the identification and
understanding of large-scale climate processes that are relevant for the
modulation of up-welling regimes, and the estimation of past changes
over the past millennium and expected future changes in the current
century. These studies will be carried out in collaboration with
geochemists, biologists, geologists, and oceanographers working in the
project partner institutions.

A temporary position funded by CNES (French Spatial Agency) is open in
the framework of the French EECLAT (Expecting Earth-Care, Learning from
A-Train) program on the *microphysical, optical and radiative properties
of mixed-phase and ice clouds in the arctic region*. The grant is secure
for one year *starting September 2012*, with possibility for a further
one year funding at the end of this term.
We are looking for an ingenious and highly motivated person. The
pre-requisites for application are a good experience in cloud physics
and/or remote sensing and data analysis. The candidate must hold at
least a Master or Engineer degree (or equivalent) in at least one of the
following areas of expertise: Remote Sensing/ Physics / Applied
Mathematics /Atmospheric science.
The research will be mainly conducted at the Laboratoire de M?t?orologie
Physique (LaMP), Clermont-Ferrand, France
(http://wwwobs.univ-bpclermont.fr/atmos/fr/index.php) in close
collaboration with the Laboratoire Atmosph?res, Milieux, Observations
Spatiales (LATMOS), Paris, France (http://www.latmos.ipsl.fr/). The
successful candidate will join an interdisciplinary team with experts in
meteorology, cloud physics, both from the instrumental (in situ and
remote sensing) and modelling points of view.
Language: English / French (not mandatory)
Application deadline: First week of July 2012.
Applications with a CV, motivation letter + name and phone numbers of
two potential referees should be introduced to Olivier Jourdan (LaMP) :
O.Jourdan@opgc.univ-bpclermont.fr
<mailto:O.Jourdan@opgc.univ-bpclermont.fr> and Julien Delanoe (LATMOS) :
julien.delanoe@latmos.ipsl.fr <mailto:julien.delanoe@latmos.ipsl.fr>
Detailed description of the work:
In Polar Regions, the precise quantification of the cloud radiative
forcing is still problematic and has been identified as a major source
of uncertainties in climate models. The assessment of the radiative
impact of arctic clouds is hindered by inadequate knowledge of their
thermodynamic phase, their geometrical (fractional coverage, height and
thickness), microphysical (liquid and ice water content, shape and size
of ice crystals) and optical (optical depth, phase function, single
scattering albedo) properties. Remote sensing observations from space
performed by active instruments such as CALIOP and CloudSat as a part of
the A-Train constellation give us the opportunity to bridge these gaps.
They provide us with detailed characterization of arctic cloud
properties with adequate spatial and temporal coverage. However, since
arctic clouds have a large variety of physical characteristics, detailed
optical and microphysical in situ measurements are needed to evaluate
satellite products and develop novel retrieval algorithms. Since 2004,
the LaMP?s instrumental payload was involved in several measurements
campaigns for the detailed in situ characterization of arctic cloud
properties (ASTAR 2004 and 2007, POLARCAT 2008 and SORPIC 2010).
Additionally, a unique combination of in situ (Polar Nephelometer, CPI,
Nevzorov probe and PMS FSSP and 2DC instruments) and active remote
sensing instruments (LATMOS RALI : RADAR RASTA and LIDAR LNG) was
deployed during the POLARCAT campaign. This valuable combination
provided us with an unprecedented data set coupling the microphysical
and optical properties of arctic clouds from small to regional scales.
The main objective of the proposed work will be to investigate the
relationships between microphysical and optical properties of arctic
clouds based on the measurements collected during these four campaigns.
Clouds will be classified with respect to their microphysical/optical
signature by implementation of statistical methods combined with light
scattering modelling. Then, a limited set of cloud parameters
representative of the radiative properties of the different cloud
classes will be determined using radiative transfer modelling at
different spatial scales. This methodology will enable us to evaluate
the retrievals of RALI, CLOUDSAT and CALIPSO products as well as their
combined products. This work is expected to contribute to the
improvement/validation of the retrieval algorithms of these instruments
especially in mixed phase cloud conditions.

PhD Studentship at the Scottish Agricultural College
SAC is a Scottish organisation dedicated to innovation and the transfer
of knowledge to the land based industries. Our 900 staff provide
research, consultancy, education and training services to the rural and
environmental sector via a nation-wide network of 3 campuses and around
40 business units.
This PhD studentship will address the linked topics of climate change
mitigation and adaptation in agriculture. The student will first develop
a detailed understanding of adaptation processes, actions and economic
considerations in the agricultural sector. They will then develop a
method for assessing interactions between adaptation and mitigation
actions, in order to identify synergies and trade-offs. The student will
investigate methods for constructing adaptation cost curves, and
potentially also the combination of adaptation and mitigation cost curves.
The student will consider specific economic aspects of prioritising
action in both domains and the likely impacts of combined measures on
climate change goals, animal welfare and other environmental public
goods. Impacts of adaptation and mitigation measures at regional scales
will also be investigated. The studentship is linked to a new
multi-partner project Animal Change (<http://www.animalchange.eu/>) funded
by the European Union (FP7). The student will have considerable
opportunity to interact with project partners from 20 different countries.
The student will be registered for a PhD at the University of Edinburgh
and will be based within the Land Economy and Environment Research Group
at SAC, Kings Buildings, Edinburgh.
Funding Notes:
Applicants should have at least an upper second class UK honours degree
or equivalent qualification in economics or a related subject (e.g.
agricultural or environmental economics).
The successful candidate will be supported for 3 years, starting August
2012, subject to standard University of Edinburgh conditions. The
studentship is funded to pay the tuition fees for UK/EU students and
provides a student stipend of ?13590 per annum.

PhD Studentship at the Scottish Agricultural College
SAC is a Scottish organisation dedicated to innovation and the transfer
of knowledge to the land based industries. Our 900 staff provide
research, consultancy, education and training services to the rural and
environmental sector via a nation-wide network of 3 campuses and around
40 business units.
This PhD studentship will address the linked topics of climate change
mitigation and adaptation in agriculture. The student will first develop
a detailed understanding of adaptation processes, actions and economic
considerations in the agricultural sector. They will then develop a
method for assessing interactions between adaptation and mitigation
actions, in order to identify synergies and trade-offs. The student will
investigate methods for constructing adaptation cost curves, and
potentially also the combination of adaptation and mitigation cost curves.
The student will consider specific economic aspects of prioritising
action in both domains and the likely impacts of combined measures on
climate change goals, animal welfare and other environmental public
goods. Impacts of adaptation and mitigation measures at regional scales
will also be investigated. The studentship is linked to a new
multi-partner project Animal Change (<http://www.animalchange.eu/>) funded
by the European Union (FP7). The student will have considerable
opportunity to interact with project partners from 20 different countries.
The student will be registered for a PhD at the University of Edinburgh
and will be based within the Land Economy and Environment Research Group
at SAC, Kings Buildings, Edinburgh.
Funding Notes:
Applicants should have at least an upper second class UK honours degree
or equivalent qualification in economics or a related subject (e.g.
agricultural or environmental economics).
The successful candidate will be supported for 3 years, starting August
2012, subject to standard University of Edinburgh conditions. The
studentship is funded to pay the tuition fees for UK/EU students and
provides a student stipend of ?13590 per annum.
Application packs are available from our website <www.sac.ac.uk/vacancies>

Applications are invited for a postdoctoral research position focused on Arctic ocean dynamics. The post-holder will set up a process model of the Arctic ocean and sea ice system. They will use it to investigate the dynamics that govern the present day Arctic ocean circulation, as well as the mechanisms by and timescales on which a seasonally-ice-free Arctic will respond to surface forcing.
Candidates should have research experience, including a bachelors degree and PhD, in Physical Oceanography or a closely related branch of Physics, Mathematics or Earth Sciences. They should have experience of numerical modelling, combined with an interest in dynamical theory and in ocean and sea-ice observations.
The post is based in the Department of Earth Sciences and is closely linked to the sub-department of Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics. The post-holder will collaborate closely with other members of the TEA-COSI (The Environment of the Arctic: Climate, Ocean and Sea Ice) consortium project as well as with a range of international project partners.
The post is funded by the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), for a period of three years, and is available from 1 August 2012.

A fully funded PhD studentship is available at the School of
GeoSciences, The University of Edinburgh/ Centre for Ecology and
Hydrology, on the topic: Global-scale modelling of atmosphere-biosphere
exchange and interactions between air quality and climate change.
We seek a quantitative scientist with computing skills and a strong
interest in modelling air quality and climate. The studentship is open
to all EU citizens with, or expected to obtain, a good science degree
(UK 2i or equivalent) (e.g. physics, chemistry, computing, etc.).
There are two main aims: (i) to develop and evaluate the
atmosphere-biosphere exchange scheme within the UK Chemistry-Aerosol
model (UKCA); and (ii) to apply UKCA to understand and quantify key
interactions between air quality and climate change.
